Chapter 196 Lantern
After turning to the left and westward and flying continuously for ten days, a gray coastline finally slowly emerged from the vast sky.
In the past ten days, not only had Qin Shou remained vigilant and prepared to launch Blood Shadow Escape at any time, but even the Ghost Gundam had flown extremely cautiously. His two consciousnesses were tense at the same time as never before.
Maybe it was because he escaped far enough in one breath this time, or maybe it was because the eye and the paper man were inseparable.
Anyway, so far, everything has been smooth sailing.
Qin Shou couldn't help but feel refreshed when he saw the coastline, but he asked the Ghost Gundam to slow down its flight speed again, and flew normally in a half-real and half-virtual state while sticking to the sea surface and wrapped in blood mist.
While observing carefully, he cautiously and slowly approached.
After half a day passed, an inconspicuous green dot was discovered by him immediately as it got closer and closer!
The shiny little dots are not very bright, sometimes standing still and sometimes shaking, just like someone holding a flashlight with low battery.
Seeing this, Qin Shou became more and more careful. He kept this safe distance and flew secretly in an arc towards the coast on one side.
The ghost gundam is still covered in black and red blood mist. Maintaining this half-real and half-virtual state can at least make the blood mist look more natural, and the beads hidden in the body will not be easily discovered.
If he hadn't been eager to find out where he was, and the bright spot had always stayed in the distance without actively approaching it, he wouldn't have had the courage to risk it and ask for directions.
The gray-white coast does not have the fine sand washed away by the waves as expected, but is made entirely of unknown bone fragments!
Some bones are tens of meters long, some are in powder form, and many of them are human skulls.
The Ghost Gundam that came to the coast transformed into a humanoid fighting posture less than one meter tall, holding a gun in one hand and a sword in the other. It stepped on these fluffy and powdered bones and walked step by step towards the green dot.
After using all his senses and walking slowly for ten hours, the patient Qin Shou finally saw clearly that it was not a green dot at all, but a very patient skeleton holding a fishing lantern!
The shape of the fishing lantern is quite exquisite. Although it is made of white bones, the raised octagonal cornices on the top are actually carved into eight warriors with wings spread and ready to fly.
The humanoid skeleton, holding a fishing lantern in its left paw and covered in thick green mist, was wearing a tattered scarlet cloak.
The hem of Wufeng's cloak lifted up from time to time, revealing his lower body that had been lost long ago, but eight spider legs transformed from the green mist!
He held a dark sickle about a foot long in his right paw, with a long iron chain connected to the top cover of the fishing lantern hanging under the handle. His empty eye sockets filled with green mist were staring straight at a pool of stagnant water. Tranquil sea.
"If you have something to say, please don't bother me!"
When Qin Shouzheng was secretly guessing which camp this abnormal-looking skeleton belonged to, an old voice suddenly sounded deep in his consciousness.
say?
How to say?
When he was doubting himself, the voice sounded again: "I'm not interested in teaching you how to speak, and I don't want to have any interaction with you. This is very troublesome!
If it weren't for your ability to use Blood Shadow Escape, I wouldn't have let you get so close to me!
The Sea of Hell is very dangerous, but you are running around with the blood marrow beads. If you bring those troubles here and delay my business, wouldn't it make me even more troubled?
What a hassle!
If you fart, hurry up and get out of here! "
"May I ask what you call me, senior?"
Qin Shou tried to ask in his mind, "What are the blood marrow beads?"
"Ten days to the west of the Infinite Sea, one day to the south of the core battlefield, and one hour to the east of the human camp, go wherever you like!"
The old voice said impatiently, "You'd better not ask anything else, I won't bother to tell you if you ask!
Because if I answer one of your questions, more will follow!
I'm afraid of trouble, trouble."
He should be talking about the flying distance using Blood Shadow Escape, and he is so familiar that he must have been to all these places!
Qin Shou was warned repeatedly by him. Even though he was full of doubts, he continued to ask questions without curiosity.
Instead, he flapped his wings and slowly flew forward until he flew behind the skeleton, then stood there silently.
"What are you doing so close to me?"
The skeleton didn't turn around or even move.
He seemed to be able to read all Qin Shou's thoughts, and warned impatiently, "They will catch up here soon, why don't you get out of here?
Don't think that you can be friends with me if you learn Blood Shadow Escape. I'm famous for not saving anyone even if I'm dead! "
"Why are you nervous?"
Qin Shou suddenly asked back, causing the skeleton to tremble suddenly, "Anyway, I have too many divided consciousnesses!
At worst, after my consciousness is destroyed, I will file a complaint with Jin Ling! "
"Trouble, really trouble!"
The skeleton shook his head in frustration, and suddenly threw the sickle in his right paw into the sea!
Before the chain on the sickle could straighten, he suddenly pulled it back. As the sea surface rolled violently, he actually dragged out a small fish with only its bones left in the sea!
"If you don't get out, I'll throw you into the sea and feed you to the fishes!"
The fish bones caught by the skeleton struggled hard, and the fish bones standing up all over the body suddenly shot out like sharp arrows!
I saw countless white bones on the seashore being blown away by the terrifyingly powerful fish bones, as if they were bombarded by artillery shells, but the bone claws holding the bone fish did not move at all.
The skeleton suddenly raised its head, opened its jaws with neat teeth, chewed the bone fish, and then made a swallowing motion.
But the fish bone that was chewed into pieces actually slipped down from his empty rib cage, and after a few small bounces, it fell directly onto the ground full of dry bones.
Qin Shou was stunned, but the skeleton patted his rib cage and slowly turned around to look at him, sighed heavily, and said, "Did she ask you to come to me?
Seeing that you have practiced Blood Shadow Escape very well, she should have mentioned me to you often, right?"
"Of course!"
Qin Shou tried to make friends without thinking, but the skeleton suddenly said angrily:
"Bullshit!
Don't try to lie to me, I know all your thoughts!
This is not the way to make friends!
If you want me to help you solve the problem, you have to let her come to see me in person, otherwise, forget it!"
"Alas! She can't even protect herself now, how can she come to see you?"
Qin Shou said, It was true, so the skeleton sighed repeatedly, "She was ambushed and resurrected, but she was framed again some time ago, and her three souls were almost lost.
I finally got a body in exchange, and then I saved her, but I didn't expect to be hunted endlessly again, and I could only escape to the edge of the battlefield.
But more than three months ago, a big eye suddenly appeared from the crack, and wanted to kill them all without any explanation."
"Asshole!"
The skeleton was furious and cursed at the sky, "Do you really think that the top ten masters of our human camp are all decorations that can be slaughtered at will?
Today I will make an exception and teach Slant Eyes a lesson later!
Don't be a coward, learn well!"
"Yes, Senior Lantern!"
White Phoenix Golden Wing Falcon, Ranger Night Lantern!
Qin Shou guessed the identity of the skeleton when he heard "top ten masters", but he didn't expect that he and Jin Ling had such an obviously unusual relationship!
Then again, if he knew that he was cheating on him, would he still help him?
Qin Shou didn't dare to think about this idea, for fear that the lantern in front of him would see it.
